Tool Tip Radius Compensation (TTRC)

Function

Chapter 21

21-51

We recommend that you cancel TTRC by using a G40 command before
any modifications to the current work coordinate system are made,

including any offsets or any change of the coordinate system (G54-G59.3).

If compensation is not cancelled using a G40 command, the control

automatically, temporarily cancels compensation for the change in work

coordinate system. This is done by using the last compensated move in the

current coordinate system as an exit move for compensation.

If compensation was not cancelled by using a G40 command before a

change in the work coordinate system was performed, the control

automatically re-initializes TTRC after the new work coordinate system is

established. This is done by using the first move in the new coordinate

system that is in the compensation plane as a entry move for compensation.

Figure 21.46 gives an example of programming a G92; however, this

would apply to any change in the work coordinate system.
